J. Cole’s fourth album ‘4 Your Eyez Only’ is set for release next week

An iTunes pre-order page emerged on Thursday (Dec. 1) for what appears to be a new album from the Dreamville MC titled 4 Your Eyez Only, which predictably caused quite the frenzy on social media.

The iTunes page features a tracklist of 10 untitled songs with an expected release date of Dec. 9. Also of note, the album will be released through Cole’s label Dreamville “under exclusive license to Roc Nation.”

The news is especially surprising considering that Cole hasn’t offered the slightest hint of an upcoming album. And in October at the Meadows Music & Arts Festival, he said it would be his last show “for a very long time” as if he was planning on an extended hiatus.
